just seen a post by Airlie on FB saying rovers are trying to get him off the quota and bring in 2 more Aussies, meaning a possible 10 Aussies in there matchday 17! (as things stand before players leaving ans suchlike) but surly the RFL have to take this into account when looking at licencing? where is the young talent going to come in if this is true?

said a spokesman.

Maurie Fa'asavalu played for Great Britain in 2007 after previously playing rugby union for Samoa, but has now switched codes back to rugby union.

Manu came to England in 2006 to play for Castleford, moving to Hull a year later, and recently signed a new two-year deal after producing the best form of his career, earning him a place at McNamara's 37-strong gathering.

Hull coach Richard Agar admitted the issue was "a hot potato," but said he backed the player's involvement with England.

"If Steve picks him, he'll open himself up for some criticism, but if he picks him and England win the Four Nations, he'll be judged as a hero," he said.

"Most other sports do it - a lot of players Australia pick have been born and bred in New Zealand - and Willie by rights qualifies for England on residency grounds

[iI await your respone EXPRO [/i

yeah agreed he shouldnt play for england. thats what this post is about. too many players coming from "quota" to "non quota" just because its happening dont mean we agree with it

i just find it funny rovers linked every player under the sun then going cap in hand DEMANDING cash from the council. for something which is not a council owned building.

yeah thats a good shout too Hutchie
